Life is so hectic at the moment.

We are on the verge of buying a new house, so much running around for everything. Add to that the regular life things work and two kids that need tending, the daughter that has been running a fever the last two days and ... you get the picture.

My dream recall is so messed up right now, as in pretty non existent. I'm to blame mostly, so so tired, lack the willpower to write stuff down during the night (the little shards of dream that i do remember at times).

It's ok :-)
Life is throwing me some curveballs at the moment, just need to dodge them and remember I'm in this for the long run.

I read several articles / topics (can't remember if they were on this forum) about dream yoga, meditation and awareness. And some stuff about RAS (reticular activating system). It was actually very informative and pretty much spot on regarding my situation.

So I've been doing some light amateur meditation every evening, where I recognized what I think is my main issue. My focus shifts around so so much. I am unable to keep my focus on one particular thing. I realized this after reading a topic writing by FryingMan I believe, where you 'meditate' before going to bed and focus on your breath and learn to control your wandering thoughts.

This is so difficult for me. And if it's so difficult for me in waking state, obviously it's going to be difficult in transition and in sleeping state. I'm an ADD basket case, and I really need to learn to live in the moment (wow, that sounded very Jedi-like ((living-force Qui-Gon Jinn joke for the Star Wars fans out there))).

Anyway, it's going to be interesting exploring this in the coming very hectic months ahead of me.
